Scenes with First Doctor 65
D The Doctor
Well, you did come, my dear, so it's too late to be worry about that. And stop snivelling!
I'm not snivelling. It's me nose running again! Anyway, I'm feeling better now but I don't suppose anyone cares.
D The Doctor
But of course they care, my dear. Now don't worry. It's not your fault at all. If it's anybody's, it's mine.
Look, do you think this has happened before? That we've carried an infection from one age to another, or even one planet to another?
D The Doctor
Oh, I don't want to think it about it, dear boy. It's too horrifying. Though I must say that we're usually very healthy.
It'll spread through the whole ship, become an epidemic.
D The Doctor
Well, that depends on the strength of the virus infection.
If it's half as bad as my cold was, it will.
D The Doctor
Oh, do blow your nose, child. It's running all over the place.
No, it isn't. I'm crying this time.
[the Doctor sneezes and as he does so he slowly fades away. Steven and Dodo don't notice right away because they are facing each other]
Oh, Doctor, don't say you're catching a cold now.
[Now Steven and Dodo turn toward the Doctor and discover that he's disappeared] Doctor? Well, where are you?
D The Doctor
[the Doctor briefly fades in and out of sight but then completely disappears] What do you mean, dear boy? I'm still here, hmm?
D The Doctor
What? Oh, nonsense, child! Nonsense! Hmm!
You have! Do you think this is something to do with the Refusians?
D The Doctor
You're wrong! This is something far more serious. We're in grave danger. This is some form of attack!
D The Doctor
Your infantile behaviour... Is beyond a joke.
[The Doctor reaches down to put counter 1 on top of counter 2, to complete his trilogic game. But then hesitates]
D The Doctor
... No, of course I mustn't. You very nearly caught me then, hmmm.
Make your next move, Doctor. Make your move.
D The Doctor
But if I do, this place vanishes, hmmm?
... And then you have won completely...
D The Doctor
... And if this place vanishes, then the TARDIS, and the rest of us, will vanish also.
Correct. That is the price of success. Make your last move, Doctor. Make your last move.
[The Doctor puts his hands on his lapels]
D The Doctor
I never touch alcohol.
H Holliday
[taking a swig] Well I do.
Aw for Pete's sake, Doc, tell 'em you're Holliday! You can take on all four of 'em any time.
D The Doctor
Yes, I'm sorry, gentleman, but this is Holliday's young girlfriend, and she's only lying to protect him. Now, as I've already told you about this gun.
[Seth's revolver is shot from his hand and he clutches his wrist in pain. Nobody is more surprised than the Doctor who was merely waving the gun by way of explanation. But Kate is quick to take advantage of the confusion and produces her own weapon.]
Okay, don't try it, fellas. Nice shooting, Doc, but ya should have got him between the eyes.
D The Doctor
Between the who?
D The Doctor
Oh, my dear young lady, I, I, I, I...
Kill the next one that moves.
D The Doctor
Yes, yes, quite so, quite so. Very good idea. Excellent. Well, you heard. Steven, get their guns!
J Jano
Do you not realize that all progress is based on exploitation?
D The Doctor
That, sir, is protracted murder!
D The Doctor
[The Doctor and Dodo looking up at the newly completed Post Office Tower in London] : You know there's something alien about that tower! I can sense it.
Smells okay to me. Good old London smoke...
D The Doctor
I can feel it's got something sort of powerful. It's... Look at my skin. Look at that. I've got that pricking sensation again, the same. Just as I had when I saw the Daleks, those Daleks were near...
D The Doctor
Oh, er, yes, of course, you, er, you didn't meet them, did you, child? No. No, and I pray that you never will.
K Kewper
The rope will make more mark on your fine skin!
[Cherub throws his knife into Kewper's back]
[Cherub then shoots the Squire]
[Polly screams with her hands over her mouth]
You must come and live with us.
But we cannot live with you, you're different! You've got no feelings!
Feelings? I do not understand that word.
D Doctor
Emotions! Love! Pride! Hate! Fear! Have you no emotions, sir, hmm?
G General
You can assure me of what you like, but whether I believe you or not is another question!
G General
I haven't got time to deal with this now, BUT WHEN I DO, you'd better have a good explanation!
D Doctor
I DON' T LIKE YOUR TONE!
G General
AND I DON'T LIKE YOUR FACE, nor your hair!
What’s happened to you, Doctor?
D The Doctor
Oh, I'm not sure my dear. Comes from an outside influence. Unless this old body of mine is wearing a bit thin.
Hey, come on Doctor, wakey wakey! It's all over now.
D The Doctor
What did you say, my boy? It's all over. That's what you said. No, but it isn't all over. It's far from being all over.
What are you talking about?
D The Doctor
I must get back to the TARDIS... IMMEDIATELY!
D The Doctor
Yes, I must go now.
Aren't we going to go back to say goodbye or anything?
D The Doctor
No. No, I must go at once.
Oh well, you better have this. We don't want you catching your death of cold.
D The Doctor
(Ben hands the Doctor his cloak) Ah, yes! Thank you. It's good. (starts leaving, then turns back) Keep warm.
S Sara
[Wakes up after the TARDIS explodes] S-S-Steven.
[Rushing over to her] Sara. It's all right. We're OK!
D The Doctor
Hey! What's that? Oh, of course we are. Nothing can enter the ship!
S Sara
But what happened to the ship? How are we outside?
D The Doctor
This... is obviously a beach. I've always liked the sea-side. Something about the sand between ones toes... It's going to ruin these shoes though...
S Sara
[Slightly annoyed] You're changing the subject, Doctor. The TARDIS ...
[narrating] Sometimes it's like I've lived a thousand lives in a thousand places. I'm born, I live, I die. And always, there's the Doctor. Always I'm running to save the Doctor. Again and again and again. And he hardly ever hears me. But I've always been there.
[The First Doctor and Susan are about to steal a faulty TARDIS]
FD The First Doctor
Yes? What is it? What do you want?
[narrating] Right from the very beginning.
Sorry, but you're about to make a very big mistake. Don't steal that one, steal this one. The navigation system's knackered, but you'll have much more fun.
[narrating] Right from the day he started running.
Just about ready to do it.
GG Gallifreyan General
Ready to do what?
We're going to freeze Gallifrey.
GG Gallifreyan General
I'm sorry, what ?
Using our TARDISes, we're gonna freeze Gallifrey in a single moment in time.
You know, like those stasis cubes? A single moment in time held in a parallel pocket universe.
Except we're going to do it to a whole planet.
And all the people on it.
GG Gallifreyan General
What? Even if that were possible—which it isn't—why would you do such a thing?
Because the alternative is burning.
And I never want to see it again.
GG Gallifreyan General
We'd be lost in another universe. Frozen in a single moment. We'd have nothing.
You would have hope. And right now that is exactly what you don't have.
GG Gallifreyan General
It's delusional! Why, the calculations alone would take hundreds of years!
Oh, hundreds and hundreds .
But don't worry. I started a very long time ago.
[The camera zooms past the attacking Dalek fleet to reveal another TARDIS flying into scene]
FD The First Doctor
Calling the War Council of Gallifrey: This is the Doctor!
[The Doctor's other incarnations fly their TARDISes towards Gallifrey]
You might say, I've been doing this all my lives.
